Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1361447A2] A test executive system (100) for performing tests on an electronic device (108). The system includes an electronic test program (800) that provides plug-ins (140) to allow communication with other electronic devices (141, 143, 149). The electronic test program also provides an Active X-COM interface (825) that allows the other electronic programs to control the test executive program (810). The interface devices can be selected and deselected using a drop down menu (400) in a GUI (300). <IMAGE>
